well this is a behemoth…you worked hard on this one john congrats buddy on accomplishing this one…its grand…sure glad you have help getting this up…the one ive got isnt near as heavy , but its heavy…you’ll see it soon….., but maybe you can do a doggie palace for that dog in the back ground…or just put a large hole in this one and put a ramp onto it for the dog to climb up and into this one…lol…that would be cool…have your dog stickin his head out from about 7 feet in the air…haha…......good luck john…grizz

You are truly the king of birdhouses.
You should build your dogs an extreme doghouse.

Your bird mansions are nothing short of amazing. Been noticing your other posts and it’s past time to comment and compliment your work.
